ABSTRACT
Synchronous multiple gastric cancer is a rare condition involving multiple malignant tumors at different sites in the stom-ach. Such cases account for 6%-14% of all gastric cancers. Currently, cases of multiple gastric cancer can be classified by the monoclo-nal or polyclonal nature of the original tumor. Some patients with multiple gastric cancer exhibit hereditary susceptibility and muta-tions in mismatch repair genes. Multiple gastric cancer occurs more commonly among elderly male patients and in the proximal stom-ach at an early stage. No significant differences in vascular invasion, differentiation status, and lymph node metastasis have been iden-tified between solitary and multiple gastric cancers. Several treatment approaches for multiple gastric cancer have been applied clini-cally, including endoscopic resection and subtotal and total gastric resection according to the tumor stages and sites. Further discus-sion is needed regarding the extension of gastric resection for multiple gastric cancer in patients with hereditary susceptibility.
